Start anew.
What would you do if you lost all your possessions? I’d pause, reflect and count my blessings (health, family, friends, potential opportunities) I’d ask myself “what did I lose that I can let go of?” as well as “what do I actually need to have access to?” I’d start again, I’d take one step at…

Sad but true.
I am the 8th child of 10 children. I have always flown under the radar, and danced to the beat of my own drum. I was a mix of precociousness, naivety, exuberance, shyness, sensitivities and athleticism. I excelled at what I loved, and completely sucked at what I disliked. (hello neurospicey) My life was all…

In every way.
In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? Hard, smart and productive work feels great. I love the sensation of being able to sit or stand back and objectively look at tangible finished products. I enjoy a cathartic release before setting my targets on my new goals.

In a heartbeat…
List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter. I’d give away my profession and become a full time writer and photographer. I’d combine it with a position as a professional traveller. I’d love love love to try my luck as a creative.

Honestly?
What brands do you associate with? I do not have a brands fetish, with favourite brands, per se. On the contrary, I’m much more likely to avoid a brand if they are associated with social and political injustices, fascists, racists, misogyny, homophobia, ageism, ableism, environmental harm etc. I actively boycott brands and businesses, and sadly…

Could, should and would!
What could you do more of? I could seriously spend more time writing, as well as getting out and about with my camera. I could, no actually should spend time exploring my city more, especially given Sydney’s wonderful newish metro system, that has made it easy to traverse North, East, South and West. I’d like…

Listening to good advice can be life changing.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received? My Dad wisely told me “in life you do not need to attend every argument you’re invited to”. This advice has served me well. Another pearl of wisdom has been “you cannot control or change the way others see or perceive you”. Additionally, the following advice…
